hi ive just started to watch Lucky Star this week,and am up to date with it.
I just wondered what day of the week does each episode come out on?
And when are the subtitles done by?

-ill see if episode 9 is subbed tomorrow or something
=D can't wait to watch it

Lucky Star is aired in Japan at around 8:00AM Sundays PST (I dunno what the equivalent is in Japan time).

Subs... this is a question that could get you into a bit of trouble if you ask in the wrong places. AFK (the subs that I watch) are as of now the fastest and for the past 2 episodes have released it around Tuesdays (summer vacation?), but before it took like a week. Just because it gets done fast doesn't mean that you should expect them to do it fast.

Its first showing of the week is at midnight Sunday nights in Japan, which would be 3pm Sundays GMT. I checked tokyotosho, and over the past two weeks, the first English subs came out Tuesday 8pm and Wednesday noon, GMT. Chinese subs come out within 24 hours of the broadcast.

I liked Kagami this week. There is a nice freshness in her voice, and the tsuntsun seems gentler, somehow. Konata continues to slay me. And Tsukasa can be as cute as she likes, as far as I'm concerned. For me, this show doesn't have to "decide what it is." It's many things.

I enjoyed the ED. No doubt these little snippets are partly meant to make us buy the CD to hear more. It's working, lol. Aaya was closer to herself as KyonKyon (thanks, kj1980) than to Konata as KyonKyon, but I for one am not complaining. She certainly followed the director's injunction to sing as close to the original version as possible. Thanks for the links to the original and the Springs version. I'm sure no-one involved will complain if this sells a few copies of the Springs version, but I deeply doubt Aaya is going to go back to Springs, where she was the second- or third-featured voice, on most songs I've seen.

I have to wait for a sub to really judge the episode, since I missed too many of the lines the first time through.

Ill just say that on wednesday it might be out subbed then ^^and watch it
it would of been good on a tuesday though since i have like anime days..
well a certain anime episode is released on a certain day :P

Also, I cracked up at the infinite 1UP from turtle bouncing on stairs of original Super Mario bros at the preview for next episode.
Even talks about the 129 cap and roll over. Good stuff.

I remember my cousins boyfriend showing me how to do that. You had to line it up to like the exact pixel though otherwise it would hit you or go right past you. Then your lives status would go from numbers to whatever symbols the game had in its font in the next memory block as a result of limited memory or whatever (the 129 cap as you say). I don't know why it was that number though.

I forgot the Japanese site that actually checked the ROM for this limit, but I recall it was because the programming bit had up to 128 lives as a positive number, but as soon as when it reached 129 and beyond it resets itself to zero and negative number. Hence once you die with above 129 lives, the game thinks that you have zero (or negative lives left) so it is instantaneous GAME OVER.

I'm probably wrong on the specifics, but the game probably used a 8 bits to store lives. Normally, a 8 bits stores values between 0 to 255, but the one in Super Mario Bros. probably used -127 to 128. Once the lives counter reached 128 and the player gains an additional life, the counter "rolls over" and becomes -127.

I liked this episode a bit more after watching it a 2nd time. I love how Kona got OWNED on the "sushi personality" website. The all-you-can-eat desert bar was funny because it showed how damn cheap Kona and Kagami were. (This is one trait they have in common). They were like, "No! We can't pay an extra fee for leftovers!"

Blood type convo was lost to me. But then again, being non-Japanese, I guess it has always has. (I remember playing Growlanser and thought, wtf, my blood type has an effect on my personality?) Same thing with the buffet that charges extra for more leftovers, since the buffets I go to don't really give a damn as they already charge enormous prices already. Same thing also with bargain sales according to which baseball team is in the finals, as I understand each baseball team has a big company sponsor behind it, which really is not seen here in North America, right? Cultural gap, I must say. ^^;

More and more though, it seems Miyuki is like just a friend only in school. I mean, how come she doesn't hang out with the gang after school hours, beach episode notwithstanding? Then again, considering where this comes from, Miyuki is probably off doing ojousama type activities that takes up much of her time after school.

Still, Miyuki = win this time around. Minesweeper was one of my favorite games back then, though I never really finished expert even once since I love beating beginner under 8 seconds over and over again. The eye drop scene, though, was the best part of the ep for me. Miyuki finally oozes her Moe attributes and the scene was just lol hilarious for me, as my imagination of Kona's face is running wild. XD

As for Lucky Channel, still doing good for me. Though I'm kinda confused on how this is the third character they have introduced (was it only Konata before this, right?). Still, Minoru taking Akira's picture was funny, since despite's Akira's efforts to be cute, Minoru still ends up making her look like her angry self. And stiffy shots? *giggle* But you can't forget about...
